Holkham Hall by Candlelight Guided Tour

Home What’s on Holkham Hall by Candlelight – Guided

Add some extra sparkle to your festive season with a guided tour of Holkham Hall at Christmastime!

Our intimate Candlelight experience begin in the splendid Marble Hall with a welcome from your tour guide. Enjoy the live music and ambience of the Palladian Hall before being taken on a guided tour of the magnificent state rooms adorned with opulent Christmas decorations and beautiful flickering candlelight.

Your guide will share how the installations and unique decorations were created, and divulge the inspiration behind each room setting.

End your tour in the wonderful Old Kitchen and tuck into a complimentary mince pie and glass of prosecco.

Work is already underway behind the scenes to build this year’s Christmas masterpiece (as seen on Channel 4’s ‘Christmas at Holkham’) but if you already want to get a christmas fix, enjoy a browse of these photos from the last few years…
